well the anser is no it was not tested other then feel.
It is however holding your had over the outlest end wile its running was a good way to tell it pushes a lot of air. also I dont know if you guys have seen the fan blade on it, its not a conventional propeller that has massive restriction because the motor is in the way, its a rotary kinda fan (probably using the rong turm but its a fan that pushes the air horazontaly from the fans center so there is no restriction of the motor, and has a good 30 blades on it verticly from the center. --------------------  |

QUOTE(creis @ Feb 12, 2006 - 8:23 PM) [snapback]392823[/snapback] ^ I'v read that, I was not impressed, the thing is kinda a crapy design as far as the fan goes, but 10hp is respectable. why arent you impressed? an axial fan has no inherent disadvange of a centrifugal fan. 10hp for 300 bucks is nice value in my opinion.

And that's extra scary to me, because there's a large, out-of-focus monster roaming the countryside. |
